Station 1 and Zack Freitas part ways

Station 1 Restaurantopened in Woodside last fall, with former Commis chef de cuisine Zack Freitas in the kitchen. Mr. Bauer soon reviewed it, to the tune of 3 stars for food and 2.5 overall.

Unfortunately, Freitas is no longer the chef at Station 1. Both Freitas and owner Zu Tarazi stress that the split was amicable and the best thing for all parties. Seems both parties had differing ideas on the direction of the restaurant, and it was best that they shake hands and go their separate directions.

Sous chef Ryan Harris is filling for the time being, while the restaurant looks for a permanent hire. Tarazi says Station 1 will continue to serve the same style of food, in a three-course format. Freitas is considering his options.
